Language processing and comprehension can be understood in terms of both linguistic and non-linguistic processes. To make a decision regarding the meaning of complex linguistic inputs such as idiomatic expressions, one has to perform multiple complex...

When less is more: Evidence for a facilitative cathodal tDCS effect in attentional abilities (2012)
Journal Article
Lavidor, M., & Weiss, M. (2012). When less is more: Evidence for a facilitative cathodal tDCS effect in attentional abilities. Journal of cognitive neuroscience, 24(9), 1826-1833. https://doi.org/10.1162/jocn_a_00248

Many previous studies reported that the hyperpolarization of cortical neurons following cathodal stimulation (in transcranial direct current stimulation) has resulted in cognitive performance degradation. Here, we challenge this assumption by showing... Read More about When less is more: Evidence for a facilitative cathodal tDCS effect in attentional abilities.
